The Hyperion XF-7 HyperFuel Power Station Pod Has Its Global Debut In LA
At AutoMobility LA, Press Day before the opening of the Los Angeles Auto Show, Hyperion, Inc. introduced a unique solution to the approach of providing Hydrogen refueling stations. Not a hardscape approach, but one based on transportable mobility. The XF-7 HyperFuel power station pod.

| Each XF-7 will provide a choice of EV charging functions. A Plug-In charge for straight Electric Vehicles. A recharge fuel port for Hydrogen Hybrid charging vehicles. Charging options are provided on either side of the XF-7 station pod. Image Credit: Edmund Jenks (2022) |
Each “Pod” would have a station on each side with the ability to refuel/recharge on each side given the type of EV one may be driving. Pure EV charge at about 15 minutes, or so, or Hydrogen at about 3-5 minutes. This Pod would have the ability to create hydrogen which would be used to create both the recharge and refuel provided by the Pod.

The Pod features on-board solar panels dedicated to support the operation on the Pod as a service station but not the function of producing the recharge/refuel of the EV platforms that pull up to the Pod.
